Sigh. . .
I knew there had to be a method to it's madness.....
Unfortunately that is not an option. The card that I am using as eth0
is a 10base-2 (coax) card, and the other one was provided by the cable

I have a whole S**Tload of Intel EtherExpress Pro cards (that are both),
but you can't use two of the damn things in the same box!!!
